Abstract
A computerized system is described for measuring viscoelastic properties of thin interface layers using ultrasonic interface waves. This system includes an acoustic bridge for eliminating the temperature dependence of the transducers and the substrates. To check the accuracy of phase velocity measurements, an analog simulation of the measurement method using a highly stable frequency synthesizer was applied. In this way, the resolution of the electronic device for time delay measurements was estimated to be less than 30 psec.
